There are no known cures for MCD in its human form, which is otherwise known as variant Cruetzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD). Nor are there any cures for MCD in the bovine version, which is otherwise known as Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). As a matter of fact, no form of this disease in any animal that is likely to be affected (sheep, bison, buffalo, elk, deer, etc.) has any sort of cure whatsoever. This disease in sheep and goats is called Scrapie. In cervids, it is called Chronic Wasting Disease. BSE, Scrapie, and CWD are all collectively known as Transmissble Spongiform Encephalopathy (TSE). Thus, TSE is not curable.
"There is currently no proven treatment for the underlying process" which causes variant CJD according to the Edinburgh CJD unit in Scotland, in the United Kingdom (July 2006). This is also true for the bovine variant, sheep variant or cervid variant of this disease. The only possible treatment available (if you can call it that) is humane euthanasia of the affected animal.
We are aware of mad cow disease
To the best of my knowledge, no one has tried to treat bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, the scientific name for mad cow disease). This is because the disease is caused by a prion, a misfolded protein, and there are no medications that can reverse the misfolding.
There is no such thing as "cow disease" unless you are referring to MAD cow disease, which is something else entirely.
No.
no
Mad cow disease cannot be treated. The only solution is eradication to prevent the spread of the disease.
No, mosquitoes do not carry mad cow disease. Mad cow disease, or Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), is caused by prions that affect cattle and is not transmitted by insects. The disease primarily spreads through the consumption of infected animal products. Mosquitoes are not involved in the transmission of prion diseases like mad cow disease.
Mad Cow Disease is a layman's term for Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy.
they go mad
Yes, that is precisely how you contract mad cow.
It's not sad cow disease, it's MAD cow disease. Its a brain disease that can cause irrational behavior in cows.
She had Bright's disease and Mad Cow disease.
